Every au pair in Texas must complete 6 academic credits at an accredited U.S. institution during their program year., giving them the chance to study and experience the American educational system. Host families are required to contribute up to $500 toward these educational opportunites. If an au pair extends for an additional 6, 9, or 12 months, they must complete additional credits.
Whether your au pair decides to improve their English, continue classes in their area of study, or explore a new subject, these opportunities make the Cultural Care au pair Texas experience even more enriching. And thanks to the state’s rich education system, au pair program participants have access to community colleges, universities, and language courses—many of which offer flexible class formats and budget-friendly options.
Here are a few excellent choices:
Hult international Business School: Offers online classes in business, communication, and leadership, designed to enhance an au pair’s cultural exchange journey and equip them for success in any professional environment.
Au Pair Weekend: Au Pair weekend offers weekend courses combining learning with activities, community engagement, and field trips. The programs are offered in major U.S. cities including San Antonio, Texas.
